Data Interface for Electronic Data Interchange Implementation Steps

The implementation steps for the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Data Interface for Electronic Data Interchange system:

  1. Set up customer billing instructions.

    See Setting Up Customer Billing Instructions.

  2. Set up EDI information for a supplier.

    See Entering EDI Information for Suppliers.

  3. Set up item cross references.

    See "Maintaining Cross-References" in the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Applications Demand Scheduling Execution Implementation Guide.

  4. Set up EDI tolerance rules.

    See Defining EDI Tolerance Rules.

  5. Format flat file data.

    See Flat File Data.

  6. Verify the report output destination in the .ini file. The .ini file contains a UBE section, UBEDBOutputLocation (the ID for the system value is 79), which the system retrieves if a user specifies an invalid output destination for the EDI text files that the system generated. If you do not specify an .ini setting, the current working directory is the default destination for the output.
